As you’re all aware this is our last week with Woxy.com. The beloved online radio station is taking a Future Of Rock And Roll “victory lap” by repeating its Modern Rock 500.
We’ll playback 100 ‘laps’ per day, starting Monday at 9am ET, and resuming Tues-Friday at 9am until we reach #1 sometime after 4pm on Friday.As this was our signature event for so many years, the last two of which were pre-recorded, it gives us a final opportunity to share music with you that helped to define 97X/WOXY.com through our 23 year existence.
Thanks for all the great music, Woxy!
Check out the 500 at woxy.com/vintage.

great folks.
Very, very sad.
The best.
A few years ago I called Babs to request a song to play for a girl, and after she played it she said she felt like Chuck Woolery and totally called me out.
It didn’t work. WOXY will be missed.
what a shame…
*waits for someone with something nasty to say about woxy*
The MR500 countdown is spinning only on the WOXY Vintage stream. You can check out the listen link from here:

Otherwise, the regular WOXY stream will be playing the regular new stuff through Friday afternoon. We’re expecting to sign off before 5pm eastern.
cheers,

Shiv! *hugs* I wish all of you guys the best.
I’m going to miss the hell out of WOXY. Funny, since I discovered it on accident last summer whenever interning for some booking agents. I’ve been hooked since and have discovered a lot of artists I’ve grown to love through it (Editors, We Are Scientists, Guillemots, to name a few). WOXY will be sorely missed. Thanks for a great run.
It appeared in one of the local Twin Cities newspapers that Barb from WOXY will be taking the 9-Noon slot (and Music Director) at ‘The Current’ in the Twin Cities.

Looks like after today WOXY may be alive and kicking once again.
The guys over at CD-trading service “La La” have indeed announced that they have agreed to purchase and revive WOXY. Hooray!
